    Description

    Hi everyone! We are Adrienn and Oliver, living in the deep countryside of Hungary on a 8 ha property.
    We bought this property with our friends to start our own eco-village. Our main goals are self-sufficiency and homesteading. We do animal husbandry, permaculture inspired gardening, habitat and ecosystem restoration and lots of natural building projects.

    Come, join us in this beautiful area, where you can learn all about farming, gardening and permaculture!

    We offer our RV, and a meal a day for exchange of 4 ours of volunteer work. Farming and gardening experience is not required, we'll teach you all ;)

    We can accept one person or a couple :)

    The place is ideal as a getaway from modern, rushing, crushing society, a window into everyday local Hungarian life. I'm looking for honest, working, reliable people, who plan for staying more than weeks.

A mowed field stretches under a blue sky with scattered clouds. Trees and bushes border the field, with a house partially hidden in the background.
Two people stand in a sunlit, open field surrounded by green trees and distant houses, beneath a blue sky scattered with white, wispy clouds. Peaceful scenery.
An old, rustic brick house with a damaged roof sits in overgrown grass. A man in shorts and a hat walks past the front, partially visible.
A rustic old wooden well stands in tall grass beneath a large pine tree, surrounded by greenery. Blue sky and sunlight create a peaceful rural scene.
Rows of lush grapevines stretch into the distance under a bright blue sky, surrounded by greenery and trees, with a small house visible ahead.
An old brick house is shaded by overgrown vines. A wooden table and chair sit abandoned under the lush green canopy, surrounded by untamed vegetation.
